Israel Seized Nearly 200 Binance Accounts Over Terrorist Links Over Two Years

Authorities in Israel have seized 190 Binance accounts with ties to Islamic terrorist groups since 2021, Reuters said on May 4.

Reuters reported that two of those accounts were linked to Islamic State (ISIS) and that almost all of the other accounts were owned by three firms with ties to Hamas.

Reuters was unable to determine the total amount of cryptocurrency seized across those 190 accounts. However, it noted that Israel’s National Bureau for Counter Terror Financing (NBCTF) disclosed in April that it had seized cryptocurrency worth more than $137,000 from 80 Binance accounts belonging to the same three firms.
